No. 48: Phil Collins – In the Air Tonight

Year Released: 1981
Billboard Hot 100 Chart Peak: 19

If you’ve ever attended a night game at FSU’s Doak Campbell Stadium in the 1980s, you know that, during pregame, this ominous tune was a fan favorite.

This won’t be good for an afternoon tailgate, but for night games and getting psyched up for the build to Phil’s drum solo (please, no Mike Tyson-ing) this song can be a lot of fun for some chest-puffing and wing carnage.

There are a few alternate versions of this tune available – Nonpoint, Kelly Sweet, and others – but the Phil Collins original is where you want to go when you want it done right.
